'The Last Worker' Star-Studded Voice Cast Revealed - Trailer

by Rainier on Sept. 3, 2021 @ 1:05 a.m. PDT

The Last Worker is a first-person narrative adventure centered around humanity's struggle in an increasingly automated world, where humans are being replaced by robots.

Set in a lonely, oppressive but strangely beautiful environment, The Last Worker is a unique blend of first-person narrative, work simulation and stealth strategy game play.

Combining a hand crafted art style with uniquely immersive gameplay mechanics in an epic setting, The Last Worker delivers an emotional, thought provoking and comedic story packaged with rich characters.

Featuring uniquely immersive gameplay, handcrafted 3D and 2D visuals based on concepts by comics legend Mick McMahon and a multi-instrumental score, The Last Worker features intense performances from an all-star cast (to be announced in early September).

Wired Productions, Oiffy and Wolf & Wood revealed the world-class talent delivering the inspired narrative in The Last Worker.

Jason Isaacs said, “The Last Worker felt entirely unlike every game I’ve played or been a part of. The characters were human and complicated and funny, the story was poignant and personal and, yes, the game-playing was addictive and fun. All round it felt fresh, creative and original. When was the last time you had a helper bot from Liverpool?!  The creator, Jörg, is a risk-taking nerd of the highest order. Roll on The Last Worker 2… if that’s not a contradiction!”

Jörg Tittel said, “It is with great pride that we are able to announce our all-star voice talent during La Biennale di Venezia, the world’s oldest film festival. Every member of the cast brings their respective characters to life in ways that go beyond what we cover ever have hoped or imagined.”

Leo Zullo, Managing Director, Wired Productions, continued, “The Last Worker being the only video game up for an award at the 78th Venice International Film Festival is a testament to how unique an experience it already is for VR and traditional gaming platforms.”

Key Features:

  • A collaboration between writer/director Jörg Tittel (The White King, Ricky Rouse Has a Gun) and VR pioneers Wolf & Wood (A Chair in a Room: Greenwater, The Exorcist: Legion, Hotel R’n’R)
  • Handpainted 3D art based on concepts by comics legend Mick McMahon (Judge Dredd, 2000 AD)
  • Hours of narrative, immersive gameplay in an environment the size of the sunken city of Manhattan
  • A unique blend of core gameplay mechanics seamlessly interwoven into a narrative game unlike any other
  • Rich characters performed by an all-star cast in a story filled with heartfelt drama, biting satire and intense action

The Last Worker is coming to Nintendo Switch, Oculus Quest 2 / Quest, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam / Epic Games Store) in 2022.
